“Heart of England Self-Catering Holiday of the Year, Gold Award 2002”

Upper Rectory is set amid the wheatfields of North-West Leicestershire - a haven of peace and tranquillity on the outskirts of the village of Appleby Magna . These six beautifully restored barns, featuring a wealth of original oak beams, are cosy and peaceful. Designer fabrics and furnishings have been used throughout to create a luxurious yet homely atmosphere.
